101 Reasons to Homeschool

We’ve already been homeschooling for seven years. How did my kids even get old enough to be in school for that long? We started homeschooling by trying it out for a few months with just McKenna and now here I am schooling three kids at home, hoping they all want to continue for years and years to come. I’m not sure about Parker and McKenna but Sawyer is already asking about “homeschool college” so I think I’ll have at least one home with me for the long haul.

I truly have enjoyed homeschooling even more than I thought I would so figured I’d see if I could come up with 101 reasons to homeschool… (I should add that some of these reasons were supplied by my children so if something doesn’t seem like a “mom reason” that’s why.)

No more packing school lunches.

Plenty of pajama days

The opportunity to teach your children how to read

Snuggling up on the couch with your kids and a good book at any time of the day.

Experience those moments when something “clicks” and they get something for the first time.

Yes! My kids love having a water bottle close. Although the snacks go quickly!
